Class JMenu

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    ImageObserver, ItemSelectable, MenuContainer, Serializable, Accessible, MenuElement, SwingConstants

    public class JMenu
    extends JMenuItem
    implements Accessible, MenuElement
    An implementation of a menu -- a popup window containing JMenuItems that is displayed when the user selects an item on the JMenuBar. In addition to JMenuItems, a JMenu can also contain JSeparators.

    In essence, a menu is a button with an associated JPopupMenu. When the "button" is pressed, the JPopupMenu appears. If the "button" is on the JMenuBar, the menu is a top-level window. If the "button" is another menu item, then the JPopupMenu is "pull-right" menu.

    Menus can be configured, and to some degree controlled, by Actions. Using an Action with a menu has many benefits beyond directly configuring a menu. Refer to Swing Components Supporting Action for more details, and you can find more information in How to Use Actions, a section in The Java Tutorial.

    For information and examples of using menus see How to Use Menus, a section in The Java Tutorial.

    Warning: Swing is not thread safe. For more information see Swing's Threading Policy.

    Warning: Serialized objects of this class will not be compatible with future Swing releases. The current serialization support is appropriate for short term storage or RMI between applications running the same version of Swing. As of 1.4, support for long term storage of all JavaBeansTM has been added to the java.beans package. Please see XMLEncoder.

        Returns an array of MenuElements containing the submenu for this menu component. If popup menu is null returns an empty array. This method is required to conform to the MenuElement interface. Note that since JSeparators do not conform to the MenuElement interface, this array will only contain JMenuItems.

        getSubElements in interface MenuElement
        Overrides:
        getSubElements in class JMenuItem

      • setComponentOrientation

        public void setComponentOrientation(ComponentOrientation o)
        Description copied from class: Component
        Sets the language-sensitive orientation that is to be used to order the elements or text within this component. Language-sensitive LayoutManager and Component subclasses will use this property to determine how to lay out and draw components.

        At construction time, a component's orientation is set to ComponentOrientation.UNKNOWN, indicating that it has not been specified explicitly. The UNKNOWN orientation behaves the same as ComponentOrientation.LEFT_TO_RIGHT.

        To set the orientation of a single component, use this method. To set the orientation of an entire component hierarchy, use applyComponentOrientation.

        This method changes layout-related information, and therefore, invalidates the component hierarchy.

        Overrides:
        setComponentOrientation in class Component
        See Also:
        ComponentOrientation, Component.invalidate()
      • setAccelerator

        Parameters:
        keyStroke - the keystroke combination which will invoke the JMenuItem's actionlisteners without navigating the menu hierarchy
        Throws:
        Error - if invoked -- this method is not defined for JMenu. Use setMnemonic instead
      • doClick

        public void doClick(int pressTime)
        Programmatically performs a "click". This overrides the method AbstractButton.doClick in order to make the menu pop up.
        Overrides:
        doClick in class AbstractButton
        Parameters:
        pressTime - indicates the number of milliseconds the button was pressed for
      • paramString

        protected String paramString()
        Returns a string representation of this JMenu. This method is intended to be used only for debugging purposes, and the content and format of the returned string may vary between implementations. The returned string may be empty but may not be null.
        Overrides:
        paramString in class JMenuItem
        Returns:
        a string representation of this JMenu.
      • getAccessibleContext

        public AccessibleContext getAccessibleContext()
        Gets the AccessibleContext associated with this JMenu. For JMenus, the AccessibleContext takes the form of an AccessibleJMenu. A new AccessibleJMenu instance is created if necessary.
        Specified by:
        getAccessibleContext in interface Accessible
        Overrides:
        getAccessibleContext in class JMenuItem
        Returns:
